Properties › Re: Why Building Houses For Tenants In Nigeria No Longer Makes Sense by brightk(m): 6:48pm On Jun 21, 2025 |
Eniitankorede: You cannot build hotel in residential areas, or build office buildings in residential areas. You can’t build shops in estates that are quiet and no pedestrian traffic. Those are the considerations. I was discouraged from converting my place to short lets because of environment. funny enough most of the coded guest houses are in coded environments |

Pnutmillionaire: Is there a possibility a firmware update might be affecting my inverter's ability to see pv ? 10 590w jinko panels from fouani is showing 0 watts from pv side but working well with nepa. The wire of 5 in series was tested and it got 240 volts. There's also a little spark when the dc spd is turned off/on a little spark on ur spd calls for concern. who tested the pv wires to read 240dc.. pls go over ur connections again ensure u are not puting positve wire on negative terminals.. a picture of ur connection would be helpful.. ur case just too early |

ask4bk: We Nigerians praising inverters like Growatt, SRNE etc which are cheap and high frequency shows our shallowness in good solar applications..
Growatt in the west is meant for the poor who can't afford solid inverters and for 80% users they die on them after 18 months or 2 years.
Manufacturers of inverters make it clear to users not to use high frequency inverters for heavy loads. They are not meant for devices with inductive loads like fridge, freezer, pumps, AC. They are not meant for offgrid home applications when you know you'll use the loads. High frequency inverters (without transformers) are for light equipments like lightings, TV, phones, laptop, security cams etc. That's why they are Damn cheaper than low frequency ones. There components are not meant to handle heat for long.
But for us, we will use them with AC, pump, freezer etc and since it's working (of course it'll work), we claim they are the best. But they won't last on the long run.
A low frequency felicity inverter is multiple times better than your highest brand (Deye, Growatt, Tesla) high frequency inverter for offgrid use with heavy loads.
If you are going for offgrid, spend the extra money and get yourself a low frequency transformer based inverter. They are made to withstand heat, dust, heavy loads and harsh environments.
If you need inverter for your office, farm or home, for just light, laptop, TV, printer etc. No need to go for low frequency. Go then for high frequency inverters and save cost u read wetin u write so? u call deye n srne cheap.....if u know wetin i de take srne inverter eye see u nor go talk this word wen u talk so.. dat u once used a dumb hf inverter doesnt make others useless. |

bkuranga: I need your insights please.
Can I safely power a 12V CCTV camera directly from a 12V battery (charged by solar)?
I have a CCTV camera that normally runs on an adapter rated for 12V DC, 2A (input: 100–240V AC). I want to bypass the adapter and power the camera directly from a 12V battery (such as a sealed lead-acid or LiFePO4), which is charged by a solar system[b].
[b]My questions:
1. Is it safe to connect the battery directly to the camera’s power input? 2. When fully charged, the battery can output around 12.6V to 13V—is this safe for the camera? 3. During solar charging, voltage can reach up to 14.5V—would this damage the camera if it's connected? 4. How do I ensure correct polarity when wiring? 5. Is it safe to charge the battery and power the camera at the same time?
Any advice, experience, or wiring tips would be really appreciated!
Mrreed , Dam5reey1 , dollarnaira , HeavenlyBang and others. O check ur camera specs dat is if u re buying good products I think read a voltage from my mumtimer . It was around 14v wen I increases voltage for long range wires recentky |

I had about 700plus watts around 11am then it kept increasing and crossed 800w before the c. Disconnects and won't charge again.

PrettyMuchNoOne: assuming one was in Lagos, what's their best option for getting access to Starlink?
i know before you could use the business plan and pay more, but that seems to have been removed as an option.
if someone got a mini terminal from, e.g. Jiji, is there any guarantee it'd work at home? I can get ur starlink working.. t n c applies |

Thinkunltd: I bought the Starlink mini 3days ago from Starlink website and it was delivered the next day to Delta. Glad I didn’t go and buy from vendors cos time was against me and I needed it fast to travel with so I approached vendors and they said 570k..I just shun it and went ahead and place the order on the Starlink website at 354k. y did u choose the mini |
